It was Spider Woman who preserved the Dine (Navajo) people from the
evils that surrounded them when they emerged into the Third-World.
For this reason she became one of their most cherished Gods. It was
also Spider Women who taught the Dine to weave. Spider Women told
the Dine ancestors of the first weaving loom constructed by her
husband. He made the cross poles of sky and earth cords; the warp
sticks of sun rays, lengthwise to cross the woof; the healds of rock
crystal and sheet lightning, to maintain the condition of the
fibers. For the batten he choose a sun halo to seal the joints, and
a comb of white shell to clean the strands.
